Chapter 227: Strange Moves (Fifth Change for the Alliance Leader)
It is easy to destroy and difficult to build, not to mention Cai Ruichen, who also wants to develop in this world, really doesn't have the energy to develop a city in the wasteland.
The best base in front of you is Erbil, a ready-made metropolis in front of you.
The destruction is shameful, because it will take more than ten years to build such a developed city, and it is almost impossible to think about it.
So, like Mozambi, Cai Ruichen didn't want to destroy the big city.
The tactics for recovering Erbil have been formulated, and in view of the various characteristics of the mutants, he also has a plan to let the mutants inside take the initiative to come out as cannon fodder, just like Mozabi County.
The one that's the most relaxed. And this was taken into account at the beginning of the construction of the wall.
Therefore, the wall is not very close to the city, and the nearest place is a kilometer from the edge of the city in Erbil.
Originally, Cai Ruichen also wanted to build a buffer zone of at least two kilometers, but expanding the construction radius by one kilometer required the construction cost and time to increase a lot.
So he simply built a position a kilometer away, and this time completely absorbed the shortcomings of the last mutant siege.
Directly surrounding the entire city, it is planned to build the first 40-meter-high wall in a month's time.
The construction of a second wall, six meters high, was then built, one kilometer behind the first wall.
The plan took two months to complete, and when there was a 40-meter-high wall in front and a second 60-meter-high wall in the back, the defense would be much more sound.
So. Officially the time of the offensive. It was three months later. It is planned to use a month to destroy all the mutants inside and complete the occupation of Erbil.
This is not that Cai Ruichen is worried, but a million mutants, which is too dangerous for the current strength of the base.
If he didn't have a certain certainty, Cai Ruichen wouldn't dare to take any more risks, because in reality, there was no chance to do it once.
If it's a 40-meter-high wall. The wall that was almost twelve stories tall couldn't stop the mutants, and that was a sixty-meter wall with a height of twenty stories.
This is also a dilemma of not many troops, if Cai Ruichen has tens of thousands of troops that can be used by then, then the second wall, whether to repair or not is a matter of whether it is insured or not.
Unfortunately, the present world also has to use force against Smaila, and the wasteland world also has to use force against Erbil, so there is no time to prepare.
With three and a half months to go, he was able to recruit almost 10,000 regular soldiers.
If these more than 10,000 soldiers can be used in a centralized manner, there will naturally be no problem.
But if it's a two-front battle. It's very tight.
If the base had given him more time, it wouldn't have been so difficult.
If you put the reward for Iraqi base vehicles in six months' time. Cai Ruichen may feel a little more relaxed.
Within four months, it is simply forcing people to keep developing, and it is the kind that has no hope.
Although until now, he did not know the difference between the Iraqi base car that was rewarded for the mission and the main base car.
But just for that timeless Evan, you can't miss it.
Furthermore, that's a reward for a base car, which is equivalent to one more base to develop. In Cai Ruichen's view, it is equivalent to doubling the efficiency of development.
And whether there will be a sub-base car in the future, he is not clear.
So no matter what, you can't let go of the second base car that you may get your hands on, even if that base car can only be used for viewing in the end, it's not pleasing to the eye.
In Cai Ruichen's life motto, he did not give up these two words, and he had to complete it in four months.
This is what he asks of himself, even if it is a little risk.
Just like Samarra, he is not afraid of trouble in the Western world, he is going to complete the task anyway.
There is only one reason, and there are no other factors.
On the wall, scanning the streets of the city in the distance through the scope, I saw several mutants wandering around.
The mutants were all slowly walking between the cars on the street, seemingly looking for something.
Cai Ruichen is no stranger to such a scene, and he often observes the habit of these mutants, and he can see this kind of mutant person who is blind every day.
And at night, there are more mutants who come out to hang out.
It's just that what makes Cai Ruichen feel very strange is that so far he has not found any signs of other mutated creatures operating in Erbil.
When he was in Mozabi, he also encountered four mutant mice, but here, he didn't even see a single mouse hair.
And even in the huge mountain range, no powerful mutant creatures have been found.
Some very common mutant creatures have been encountered in the process of road construction. But none of them are powerful.
Focusing on the sniper rifle in his hand, Cai Ruichen locked onto the mutant closest to him.
A mutant wandering on the edge of the city, almost 1,300 meters away from his location.
After aiming and pulling the trigger, and watching the mutant's head burst out with a ball of blood, Cai Ruichen put down the sniper rifle and picked up the binoculars to look at it.
The mutant had lost more than half of his head, and the mutants in the vicinity seemed to smell blood and were all moving closer to it.
After seeing the reactions of the mutants around him, Cai Ruichen nodded with satisfaction, as long as the lure policy can be carried out, the plan can continue.
At the moment, it's just the monitoring stage, so as not to cause an overreaction from those mutants in the city.
Experience has taught him that if the mutants are provoked, they will still take the initiative to attack.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, they will stay quietly in the city, and there are very few mutants who will stay away from the city.
If this weren't the case, the surrounding safe areas would have been flooded by these mutants.
In this world, there will be no room for human beings.
However, the next picture made Cai Ruichen's hands shake, and the telescope in his hand almost didn't catch it.
The mutants who were close to the corpse did not rush over, but as if they had agreed, those mutants actually licked all the blood around the corpse.
Next, the mutants actually worked together to carry the corpse and move slowly towards the city.
Cai Ruichen's heart unconsciously rose and fell violently, grasping the knuckles of the telescope, pinching it a little white.
"Commander?" Tang Zuwang next to him naturally saw it, hurriedly tilted his head sideways, looked away from the scope, and asked Cai Ruichen: "This situation is different from the recorded information!" (To be continued.) )
